A gangable electrical unit for positioning an electrical component beside an electrical outlet box includes a bracket with a wall structure and means for mounting the wall structure of the bracket on a wall of an electrical outlet box. In one embodiment, the means for mounting the wall structure of the bracket on a wall of an electrical outlet box is a pair of clips associated with the wall structure of the bracket for resiliently grasping a wall of an electrical outlet box when positioned adjacent thereto. In another embodiment, the means for mounting the wall structure of the bracket on a wall of an electrical outlet box is an adhering element positioned on an outward facing wall of the bracket. The clips and adhering element may be used simultaneously to adjoin the gangable unit to an electrical outlet box. A further embodiment includes a break-away stop extending outwardly from the wall structure of the bracket. The invention also relates to a ganged electrical outlet box incorporating the gangable electrical unit.
